OEB is the successor of the print resource Annual Egyptological Bibliography (AEB) and OEB includes the records and abstracts from AEB (1947-2001), combined with Bibliographie Altägypten (BA, 1822-1946), the Aigyptos database with keywords, as well as thousands of recent and older items that have been entered directly into OEB. By default the system searches the entire OEB database, including abstracts (where available), and displays the most recent result first. Look under “User information” for help and guidance on how to search the database.
